Dear Angelina
My sweet, sweet baby girl, Happy 18th Birthday.
As I sit down to write this letter to you, my heart swells with love and pride. I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey we've shared over the last year and the remarkable person you've become.
If you are reading this letter, you have probably opened the envelope I left you. This means I am no longer here with you.
I want you to follow my instructions very clearly. I think it's time you explore the world again. Use the money I have given you to buy a plane ticket to Vienna International Airport in Austria.
From there I want you to go to the private parking and take my car, look for a green Aston Martin Vantage, the keys are on the inner part of the left rear wheel, and drive to the exact address of 326 Astaria Street.
There you will find my holiday villa, which is yours if you agree to my will. The code to enter is 1506, your birthday. Once you enter put the safety alarm off, and the code is the same. You can stay here while you plan your next move.
In the master bedroom, there is a bookshelf; when you find it, pull the book that reads 'Wuthering Heights'; it's a blue book on the 3rd shelf from the top. The bookshelf will move outward, leading you into a safe room.
On the desk, I have left you a burner cell phone and a black Amex card under your fake name, Amara Perez, with plenty of money on it. There is also a suitcase and a .45 gun under the table with six rounds of bullets.
Call the number on the piece of paper using the burner and request a plane to Naples, Italy. From there I want you to find your father and tell him that I'm dead. Tell him and ONLY him about the Spanish mafia, explain what happened in Russia, and tell him that you're the leader of the Spanish mafia. He will help you.
He knows more than I ever did and I promise He will take care of you.
The set of keys is yours. It's for a vault. There are 4 vaults in total, each containing different assets of mine, two in Europe and two in Africa each vault is in one of my safehouses. I know you love a good mystery so all I'm leaving with you are the locations: Egypt, Greece, South Africa, and Monaco
I'm so sorry that I lied to you, my love; you will do good things with the Spanish empire; I have absolute faith in you. I hope this works out and you find out the truth. You managed to find me in Russia, I promise you will find me again, my sweet girl.
From the moment you entered my life, I knew you were destined for greatness. Your resilience, determination, and kindness have been a source of inspiration for everyone around you, and I couldn't be prouder to call you, my daughter.
The world is a vast and exciting place, and I have no doubt that you have incredible things in store for you. Always remember that you have the power to make those dreams a reality.
I pray that when you find the man of your dreams, he treats you right and loves you with all his might. You deserve nothing less than a partner who treats you with kindness, understanding, support, and unwavering love.
Together, may you build a life filled with love, laughter, and shared dreams. And as you continue your journey, may the pitter-patter of little feet echo in your home one day, bringing boundless joy and continuing our family's legacy.
Angelina, as you step into this new chapter of your life, always remember that you are loved beyond measure. Your journey is unique, and I have full confidence that you will navigate it with grace and wisdom, I knew when I chose you to rule the mafia, I made a good choice.
Happy 18th birthday, my darling daughter. Here's to the extraordinary adventure that lies ahead. Always stay pure-hearted, take pride in yourself, and remember,
"Aceptar las cosas que no puedes cambiar.
Cambiar las cosas que no puedes aceptar."
(Spanish: Accept the things you cannot change. Change the things you cannot accept)
With all my love,
Your mama

Hey cuties, I know this is a short chapter, although I wouldn't technically consider it to be a chapter...
I hope you're enjoying the book so far; please leave comments and let me know what you think so far!
P. S. We meet the rest of our characters in the next chapter 😉
